Hello!

Ring is size 6-6 1/4

I want to preface this by apologizing for the long post but I think you guys would appreciate it if anyone!

I posted a couple weeks ago about a gold teddy bear James Avery ring I found under one of the sinks of the house I recently bought.

I reached out to James Avery and they sent me back an email, which I have attached.

I have further attached some more close up pictures of the ring along with the original post ones.

I did inquire in my original email about how many gold versions were created and when this ring might date to, and, as you can see from the email, they were pretty tight lipped about it.

Doing some more research, my ring with the hallmark of the copyright symbol then AVERY in caps was only done through the 70s and 80s. So, this is an old ring.

And finally, after being super annoying and emailing/calling them multiple times, I got in touch with the previous (very old) couple who we bought the house from and they said that, “they’ve never seen it (the ring) in their life.”

Note the house was built in the 50’s and they only bought it in ‘98. They didn’t recognize it all.

I found the ring under the sink/vanity in the unfinished basement. It’s only a toilet and a plywood vanity so makes sense no one would really go down there and clean under the vanity. Apparently for decades.

Anyways, I just wanted to address that because I had a few comments about it on my original post and I would feel terrible trying to sell such a special piece. I have a lot of sentimental jewelry myself.

With that being said I’m open to offers now! Going into my last year of law school and could use the money for books. I would keep it otherwise.

Tried to join some Facebook markets but haven’t been accepted so offering it up here first. If you, or anyone you know, would like it, please reach out with any offer. No set price. Just would like someone who would treasure it.

Thank you!

Found this under one of my bathroom sinks when cleaning. I’ve heard of James Avery but am not familiar with the brand. It has a hallmark of @Avery and says 14k next to it inside the ring.

I did a reverse image search and only found silver ones of the same teddy bear design.

Anyone know what this is worth and where I can sell it at? Would want it to go to a collector preferably. Thanks!

Obviously not for the real passengers and their families affected by the real tragedy; yet, the movie.

Showing Rose’s portraits at the end always got me.

The dolphins jumping just before the ship.

“I changed my mind.”

And I HATE the take that Rose was selfish and didn’t let him “fit on the lifeboat.” He didn’t fit. They showed the literal door sinking below BOTH of their weights. Context clues people.

Rose gave up a wealthy, comfortable life for Jack. Even at the end a Cal looks for her on the Carpathia, and yet, she looks away. She gave up everything to makes ends meat in Cedar Rapids.

Hell, I live about two hours north of cedar rapids, and, well, it is dead haha.

So she didn't want to claim Cal’s diamond for her grandaughter/husband?

Women don't owe any of their possessions.

She kept it to remember Jack. And that is a good enough reason to never speak of it again.

Even if she kept it because it was pretty, who cares. I would have. It's her diamond, and it's her story.
